Three weeks to go.

I looked at apartments yesterday.

At school, it's becoming increasingly difficult to motivate myself to plan lessons properly. My mind is elsewhere and im becoming crabby at the kids.

I have no energy, 6 day working weeks with the same 17 kids have worn me out. I should be making more effort rather than excuses for my increasingly sorry attempts at teaching, but i dont have the energy to do so.

My students are becoming increasingly painful. Polite requests to sit down and do ones work are met with an insolent "why?" There are only so many ways you can reason with a 10 year old before you realise that not all 10 year olds are reasonable people.

Only three more weeks to go!
